Configuration Example 8

Multiple Protocols Over Dial-on-Demand PPP

This example illustrates how to configure routing of multiple protocols over a dial-on-demand Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) ISDN link. Two AR routers are connected via a Basic Rate ISDN link. Each router is attached to an Ethernet LAN on which a variety of PCs, Macintoshes and IP hosts reside. The protocols being routed across the link are:
I I I

AppleTalkused by Apple MACs to talk to each other. IPXused by Novell Netware servers and workstations. IPused on the Internet.

Configuration Example 8: Multiple Protocols Over Dial-on-Demand PPP

Configuration Script for Router A [ex8a.scp]

1. Set the system name. The prompt will change to Manager EX8_A>.
set sys name=EX8_A

2.

Add an ISDN call named demand.

add isdn call=demand number=12345678 prec=out inany=on

3. 4.

Create a PPP link over the demand ISDN call using 2 B channels.
create ppp=0 over=isdn-demand idle=on num=2

Enable the IP module.

enable ip

5.

Add an IP interface to the Ethernet port.

add ip int=eth0 ip=192.168.1.1

6. 7.

Add an IP interface to the PPP link.

add ip int=ppp0 ip=192.168.2.1

Enable RIP on the PPP link.

add ip rip int=ppp0 demand=on

8.

Enable the IPX module.

enable ipx

9.

Add an IPX circuit to the Ethernet port.

add ipx circ=1 net=aaaa int=eth0

10. Add an IPX circuit to the PPP link.

add ipx circ=2 net=bbbb int=ppp0 demand=on

11. Enable the AppleTalk module.

enable apple

12. Configure an apple port on the Ethernet port.

add apple port int=eth0

13. Configure an apple port on the PPP link.

add apple port int=ppp0 demand=on

Configuration Script for Router B [ex8b.scp]

1. 2. Set the system name. The prompt will change to Manager EX8_B>.
set sys name=EX8_B

Add an ISDN call named demand.

add isdn call=demand number=12345678 prec=in inany=on

3.

Create a PPP link over the demand ISDN call using 2 B channels.
create ppp=0 over=isdn-demand idle=on num=2

4. 5.

Enable the IP module.

enable ip

Add an IP interface to the Ethernet port.

add ip int=eth0 ip=192.168.3.1

6.

Add an IP interface to the PPP link.
